mk2 Golf overheats by John Reay
I have a 1991 Golf Driver 1.8 auto which loses water through the expansion tank when driven in hot weather. I have replaced the filler cap, thermostat and the 3 pin fan thermoswitch, but still have the same problem. It seems to be that the fan only operates at normal speed and never at boost speed and never for long after the ignition is turned off. Can anybody help?

'98 Golf GT TDI 110 - 80,000 service - opinions sought by Mark White
Try Autowerke next to Sloans in Edinburgh. They are all ex VW Audi technicians and now maintain my Mk2 Gti. Been going to them for last two years and charge £35 p/h rather than £65 at Sloans. Everything they have done has been perfect plus they are a Bosch service agent. Don't let the premises put you off ! 410/3 Gorgie Rd Edinburgh EH11 2RN 0131337900

'98 Golf GT TDI 110 - 80,000 service - opinions sought by Dave
If you get it serviced properly (not necessarily at a VW dealer) then it'll last longer than 2 more years. I assume that price is a dealer. Why not look at independent VW specialists. Dave "Jim Willsher" wrote in message ... Hi folks,

Headgasket blew :o( by Remco Meeder
Plus I got abuse for "just sitting there revving the nuts off it" which I wasn't, it was doing that all by itself, even with the ignition key out! Anyway, the good old AA rescued me and took the car to an Autohaus to be mended. Do you drive a stick or an automatic? If you are driving a stick you should have shut the engine down by leaving it in gear and slam de brakes and keep the brake...

VW assistance/"Longlife Mobility Guarantee" by anthony james
I've got a VW Golf, bought unregistered from a supermarket in the UK, which had been imported from the Netherlands. The manual talks about the VW Longlife Mobility Guarantee. It appears that this incorporates a roadside repair/recovery service and that it is provides cover throughout Europe. Also that this continues so long as the car is serviced by Volkswagen and to continue whoever owned...
